Boonanza / Halloween Preview

Tonight we went to the Boonanza. So the kids got to wear their Halloween costumes early this year. We have our little Prince and our Princess Belle.

Sorry that I have not posted much lately. I've been too busy and if I've had a moment there has always been something else I needed to do. Today, there are still things that needed to be done, but I'm updating the blog instead.

We've been able to fit in some fun along with all the work. Over the weekend we went down for Nate's Birthday to Springville. It was fun to get to spend time with our friends. I wish we lived closer!


Here is Isaac at the park on Saturday. He was so proud that he climbed that high and was taller than me. On Sunday we left Springville and went to spend the day with my Mom. We went to Gardner Village to look at their cute decorations. It was Sunday so all the stores we closed.

When we saw the witch in the picture riding the bike Miah asked, "Mom, I thought witches rode brooms."

We then went to the Mayan to take the kids since they had never been there. They liked it, but my mom and I remembered why one trip every 3 to 4 years is fine. I did not really like the food I got. It was $7.50 for a kid's meal. Maybe I'm just getting cheap in my old age, but come on that is pricey.

Isaac was wowed by the Mayan performance.

We are also proud my nephew Cole got baptized. I am so happy to be in Utah so that I don't have to miss these family events anymore! We are looking to spending some time at my sisters in a couple weeks when my niece gets baptized.

Most of all, we are anticipating JD's arrival in 7 days. This time next week he will be in the plane flying to us!

Still counting down . . .

Things have been busy around here. I really don't know how single parents do this! I also can't believe we have been living apart almost three months. WHAT WERE WE THINKING?
Seriously though we are counting down the days until JD gets here (36 days). We can't wait for him to get here. The Donegans just got a camera for their computer so now we can use skype and see JD while talking to him. I think that has been good for the kids.
We are just up to much of the same school, work, driving, and more work.

I'm SO EXCITED!!!! (Edited)

42 days until JD joins us in Utah! We just decided it was time for him to join us, no job or anything yet. By then we will have been apart for 4 months and that is just too long!

Girls night at the Scrapbook Expo

I'm so excited to be going to the scrapbook expo for the first time in 4 years! My SIL Heather and SIL Jenni are going with me! Kids are spending the night at their grandparents and I'm childless for the night! Woo Hoo!
